The Gefechtsfeld Class is a group of seven Littoral Combat Ships built for the Royal Equestrian Navy and the Royal Equestrian Coast Guard, and currently operated by the Royal Sovereign Navy and the Royal Sovereign Coast Guard. They were the most biggest Littoral Combat Ship ever built in Great Country.

History

Both the Admiralities of the Equestrian Navy and Equestrian Coast Guard desired to obtain new class of warships for defense role to replace the old ones. So the Admirals of both branches request permission to the Monarch and the Prime Minister to give them authorization for the new class of ships, and so they gain permission. In 2078, The Monarch and the Prime Minister gave them authorization for construction. One of them is the Gefechtsfeld Class, they were to replace the aging H-Class Littoral Combat Ships. During their construction, a mistake was made and the ships were accidentally enlarged to that of the originally planned. When the first ship, Gefechtsfeld, was launched, both of the branches Admirality decided to classify her as both an LCS and a Frigate due to their size and capabilities.

In Great Country Modern Navy doctrine, Littoral Combat Ships were the 3rd smallest ship in the Navy and the 2nd biggest in the Coast Guard. Their main role is to provide fire support for coastal operations and defend Littorals of a certain nation. They were not generally that big (just 80 meters longer than Corvettes in all aspects) but the Gefechtsfeld Class were different story. Littoral Combat Ships carry handful of weaponry such as 4 to 6 Land Attack Missiles, 10 to 12 AA missiles and a handful of CIWS armament. Standard to a Littoral Combat Ships are to have a helipad but some Class had a complete set of Hangar and a helipad.

Features

My first attempt on Littoral Combat Ship class, I didn't really plan them to be this big but hey at least it worked. The ship had A 150mm Main Gun, 10 Short range missiles, 4 Anti-Ship Missiles and 2 Machine Gun implacements and CIWS implacements located on the fore.
They have a top speed of 35 knots.

They were inspired by the Freedom class LCS in terms of design.
